hyun turning down skate brands is an all time move

[close]

nah
it's just a rich kid move

[close]

is it unprecedented for someone with his talent though? im sure a lot of ams/pros have daddy money

[close]

Oh yeah, like when Riley turned down Asphalt ... oh wait.
Hyun basically just wants to do a company with his brother and friends, that's all. Rumor has it he got a DM from Todd Jordan inviting him to have lunch and talk Supreme when he was in NYC and he went something along the lines of "sorry, not really into lunch".

LMFAO, Hyunn's moving up in my book. Even though it may be daddy's money, at least he just wants to do his own thing with his own people. "not really into lunch" lol

Bullshit? I wouldn't be so quick to say that. I definitely remember Torey Pudwill saying Hyun told him point blank he "didn't do sponsors".

[h00man]

Hyunn a legend honestly. Daddys money but gotta respect him for turning down big names. Primitive also approached him too right?

Good on him for doing his own thing, minus the whack IG edits.

He was riding primitive boards for a minute but not for awhile now

wheres all this trust fund kid/ daddys money stuff coming from originally?

"not really into lunch" is the new "send 10 next time"

dinner or nothing... lunch nah...

All that rich dad story - cmon how much money you need to be independent from
a Board / Shop sponsor - you receive max free gear and maybe 300 - 500per month.

Far from rich myself - have just my regular income - I have no worries to buy boards and clothing.
Both partnerships only makes sense if you really hang with the people and like them / want to go on tours with them.
Pudwill was just starting Thankyou or something - nothing I would be hyped to be associated with.

And Supreme -NY shop sponsor if you are living in Berlin...

this guy is selective who is collaborating with - which makes sense if its only about some peanuts like usually in skateboarding.
I think he have an agreement with Nike - which makes sense for a guy with such a social media output.
For sure if you "want to make it" in California as the new  Am - you need to collect all checks possible to survive in greater
LA Area.
But in Berlin you can do your own thing with a regular income.

I am only interested in a Surpreme video from Berlin if they hook up people from berlin and show new spots.

[Captain Creampie]

full kevin bradley part please.

Vince on knee surgery.

Hoping they get some of the Brits in there, would be great to finally see Casper and Mike Arnold get some shine out there in a Supreme clip

they are opening a store in Berlin and the video would likely showcase some local skaters as well as a few clips of the American Pros if it follows the format of Candyland or Stallion which i imagine it will

i wouldnt be surprised if he has a clip in the vid

[Dwyck]

it is a lot easier for a European young person to skate and live than it is for an American

The daddy thing is 100% false without going into detail.

[CossRooper]

Coming on SLAP and saying someone has rich parents is the easiest and least verifiable way to try and discredit someone

shoutout to all "he has rich parents" sayers past present and future

[$$LESH]

having rich parents would kick ass

hyun's from a rich family from HB

That comment is pretty broad mate. Correct me if I’m wrong but most Europeans have to prove themselves twice to make it in skateboarding, once in Europe and then again in America, regardless of what you think, that simply how it is. Or are you making a statement about their economies in comparison??

The statement is really litte to easy.
But you can have a pretty decent lifestyle studying in Berlin - and skating as much in between.
Compared trying to become a pro skateboarder in LA.

Worst case scenario in Berlin is you didn't  skate that much as expected and finish your studies and start a professional carrier after skateboarding.
Worst case in LA is you throw yourself gaps and rails for years, sleeping on a couch and ending on gofound me for your hospital bills with only some flow sponsor donating 50bucks.

becoming a pro skateboarder I Europe is more difficult then in the US, but making money outside of skateboarding to finance a skateboarding lifestyle for a couple of years is really easy.
if you study you have free health care and don't pay that much taxes - so working 2 month and doing 4 month off was my lifestyle for 4 years. Its also possible to finance a semester or intern abroad in Barcelona/ Praha / Copenhagen for example via Erasmus scholarship. which even looks good on your resume.

All good and valid points, but healthcare aside im pretty much sure you can work and skate in America too, same situation!

yeah of course, but living expenses are pretty high in the US, which might be even more pronounced in southern California- for instance, and significantly higher compared to Germany.

For sure - if you compare America with Europe in general YES But not if you compare LA vs Berlin which is one of the cheapest capitals in the world. Even Barcelona is cheaper then LA, SF or NY just in living cost.
If you decide to work you can finance yourself everywhere - but then you have not enough time left to focus „fully“ on skateboarding from 16-24

Compare cost for studies in a university in LA with Berlin. University is for free.

So for a Young talented skater from Germany 16-24- like Hyun it is financially not so interesting to make the move to the US trying to start a career in Skateboarding.

Do we even have proof hyun is living off daddy’s money? I always assumed so but I’m curious.

I've lived in SF bay area which is more expensive per SQFT. since the 90s  Skated through my 20s no problem and had no issues with living expenses.

Besides Germany is a country where most people dont laugh and take shit way too seriously, lacks the ethnic diversity that you'd find in coastal US cities, just way more shit you can do here in america besides just skating all day

[bluntfullofmid]
